Travel Tech Thursdays KL Volume 1: Talking to Strangers

Join us at the inaugural “Travel Tech Thursdays” in Kuala Lumpur with our first guest speaker, Nadia Omer, CEO of AirAsia MOVE, where we’ll talk about, “Talking To Strangers”.

Nadia has an interesting background. Born in Pakistan, she spent most of her career with brands such as Procter & Gamble, Nestle and Pepsico. She relocated to Thailand some years ago and it was there that she was recruited to join AirAsia MOVE, about a year ago.

In one of our casual conversations, she told us, “I was looking for opportunities and wanted to work with a local ASEAN brand versus a global brand. I felt that global brands did not fully understand the local customer and travel is an intriguing sector.

“For me, trends always start with local youths and you need to be on the ground, speaking to them and listening to them. When I fly, I always speak to the person sitting next to me.”

Well, we are sure she’s had loads of interesting conversations with strangers, so come join Web in Travel(WiT) and Wego as we kick off the first of our monthly get-togethers in Kuala Lumpur on February 27.
